Default Any tricks to make a DC quieter?

I leave the DC on between the intervals when I'm using other noisy

walk over to the Dc, turn it off, go do something, then return to turn
it back on. BTW, I'm considering a remote control.....

I don't see why you need to. Any tool connected to the DC makes a lot
more noise then it does.

The problem with a remote is that like the one for the TV, you have to remember
where in the hell you put it... I guess you could clip it to your belt or
something...

My workbench is pretty much in the center of the shop, so I just mounted a box
with remote switch in it on the bench in handy-reach position....
I gets to be pretty automatic to take a step or 2 and flip the switch...

An outlet box, switch and 3 feet of wire was a lot cheaper than a remote control
unit too!
